Cuándo is "where when" as used in interrogatives.
Without the accent, it's everything else we see it used for.

I think I know this answer! It's the same word, just used differently. You are suppose to use the one with the tilde when asking a question. And the other for a sentence. The experts can correct me if I am wrong. But I learned this not too long ago.. I think.

Cuándo : When you ask when something happened
-¿Cuándo pasó?
